Abundances of land snail species in Norway
Description
Number of individuals of 21 species of land snails
caught in the vegetation in Norway, 1927.
Usage
data(okland)
Format
A unnamed vector of 21 integers.
Details
This is one of the data sets that Isao Motomura used to demonstrate his
‘law of geometric series’ of the abundance of species
in a sample of a biological community. The abundance values and fitted
series are in figure 2 of Motomura (1932).
Source
Second column ('A') of table 5 of Okland (1930).
